Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Students repeatedly report A-range grades, completion-based grading, make-up flexibility, and effort-based evaluation.
Online reviews are the clearest easy-A evidence, while in-person classes also grade effort generously but require attendance.
Is the course easy?
The course content is described as clear, fun, supportive, and easy to follow, especially online.
Online courses sound very easy and structured, while in-person theater classes may be more skill-building but still approachable.
Is attendance flexible?
In-person theater reviews strongly stress attendance and punctuality, even though online make-up flexibility appears generous.
Online evidence shows flexibility for missed work, but in-person evidence says attendance and being on time matter.
Is this professor recommended?

Both online and in-person reviews are strongly positive, with online emphasizing ease and in-person emphasizing mentorship.
